What the nominators said about Jesse

Jesse is such a positive presence in our community. He always has a smile on his face and shows genuine care in greeting people with kindness as he walks by.

He was a student of mine and is one of the most kind people I have had the pleasure to know. He continues to be a vibrant part of the community and always has a smile and a fist bump for everyone!

Jesse is one of the greatest people I know. I think he would be the best Grand Marshal for Duvall! He would carry this honor with pride

Jesse is known and loved by everyone. He radiates kindness and town spirit and is always willing to lend a hand when there is a need. Jesse exemplifies everything that I value about our town.

Jesse is such an energetic and positive person. He did an amazing job getting everything amped up for the March of the Vegetables parade. He'd be perfect as this year's Duvall Days Parade Grand Marshall.

He is such a kind, caring individual who loves Duvall and is always going out of his way to make others happy.

Jesse loves the town of Duvall more than anyone out there! He brings a positive and happy spirit to this town. He proudly and happily represents Duvall with a constant smile on his face!

Jesse is the kindest and friendliest person I’ve ever met. He always has greeted my friends and I with a smile and often times a good joke! Everyday at school he’d hold the door open for just about everyone and anyone. At football games he’d cheer hard and do his best to boost student’s morale. Jesse is the perfect individual for Grand Marshall!

Such a kind hearted, social young man. Always tries to be involved and put a smile on peoples faces. A true pillar in this community

2025 Co-Grand Marshal

Sandy DuVall

Sandy Duvall

It’s only fitting that someone with the last name DuVall would be one of the city’s most dedicated champions! This year’s co-Grand Marshal, Sandy DuVall, is a long-time resident, business owner, and tireless volunteer who has quietly shaped our community behind the scenes for over two decades. Since moving here with her husband Ron in 2001, Sandy has become deeply involved in nearly every corner of town life—serving on the boards of the Duvall Civic Club, the Duvall Historical Society, and the Rotary Club of Duvall, where she’s been a member since 2005. Through her business, DuVall’s Dazzling Designs, she supports nonprofits, school groups, community festivals, and small businesses—often donating custom signage, apparel, and marketing items to help others shine.

What truly sets Sandy apart is her selfless spirit and relentless generosity. From helping organize Duvall Days and SandBlast, to supporting school events, fundraisers, and veterans’ breakfasts, Sandy gives not just her time, but her heart. She is known for quietly working behind the scenes, offering creative ideas, logistical help, and even picking up litter around town—always with her trademark warm smile. She doesn’t seek recognition, but her impact is undeniable. “She is the engine of the community,” one nomination read. “Everywhere you look, Sandy has had a hand in it.”

Throughout the Duvall Days Grand Marshal nomination process, the community poured in praise for Sandy—calling her a mentor, a cheerleader, a friend, and the very heart of Duvall. Whether it’s through her volunteer work, her kind support of others, or the countless hours she spends lifting up our local organizations, Sandy DuVall represents the best of what our town is all about. We’re honored to celebrate her this year. Congratulations, Sandy!

What the nominators said about Sandy

Sandy is a gem. She quietly works behind the scenes for so many organizations and events! Duvall is lucky to have her!

Why Sandy? Because she’s a Duvall legend who no one knows about but always sees! When you see a poster or a sign for a community event in Duvall: Sandy most likely made it! Sandy is the kind of person every community dreams of—hardworking, kind, and endlessly dependable. Whether she’s rolling up her sleeves with Rotary (I've worked side by side with her and would choose to again) or helping me with signs and shirts for the volleyball team as she does for countless other local sports teams, she’s the one behind the scenes making sure everything runs smoothly. She never stops until the job is done and done right. Sandy doesn’t ask for recognition, but she deserves every bit of it. Her quiet dedication and big heart make Duvall a better, stronger, more connected place. Let’s shine the spotlight on someone who always lifts others up and I'm choosing Sandy!

Sandy is always doing something for the community and all of us who live here in Duvall she definitely should be recognized

Sandy does so much for so many in our local communities, especially Duvall!

Sandy is a community leader who has been at the core of the majority of our community events over the years. She represents community by bringing care, thoughtfulness, and dedication to all she does! Sandy deserves to be recognized as broadly as possible.

The sweetest, most caring and devoted person I know. She is everywhere all the time and does what she can to make our community a better, brighter place. She's a wonderful mentor and friend. No one deserves it more.

Not only does she represent the town with service, supporting several organizations, but she also represents, action and deed, the spirit of history, neighborliness, and good deeds. She represents the best of Duvall.

Years of volunteer work on so many events and projects. Always willing to lend a hand and contribute ideas.

Engine of the community.

I nominate Sandy DuVall for Duvall Days Grand Marshall because she is an active community member in so many community organizations, including the Rotary Club of Duvall, the Duvall Chamber of Commerce, the Duvall Civic Club, and the Duvall Historical Society. Sandy gives her time and energy selflessly , putting her principles before all else. Her work supports our community.
